The influx of parallel traders who buy their stock tax-free in Hong Kong to resell it in mainland China at a profit is causing growing unrest. Residents of Sheung Shui, a town close to China's border, say the increase in parallel importers has pushed up retail prices and causes a general nuisance. Importers argue that their trade benefits the Hong Kong economy.

I hate to say it, but a lot of HK citizens are becoming barbaric and even worse than the scums in third world countries..........no wonder that Chinese academics in China call HK'ers dogs.........can you blame them?

The brutal and rude acts committed by these two parellel traders who are Hong Kong permanent residents but appeared to be a shame of our society which values rule of law and freedom of press which should never bow to violence or threats.Taking photos of parellel traders is nothing special or illegal, just a rightful and legitimate act carried our by any local reporters. These two Hong Kong guys might worry that their faces would be recognized by the authorities concerned and later be arrested or their illegal activities be affected. Yet any violent acts should receive zero-tolerance.We demand our police to take tough actions against these rascals whose acts have caused great inconveience towards residents living in Sheung Shui.
